$1 Flying Wing (single sheet of foamboard)

Here's one I built up just for fun over the past few days. It's a single sheet of foamboard, a friends design. Check out his thread on RCGroups here:
I built this one up with gear I had sitting around, so it's got a lot more power than it was originally designed for... lol I have a Suppo 2217-06 with a 7x6 APC-E prop, running on a 1300 Gens Ace 3S and a 30A ESC. It will go vertical like a rocket! Loads of power... and fun! lol Counting the foam, tape, glue, and all electronics, I have about $50 on it not including the transmitter. I kinda half expected it to blow apart on the full throttle passes! :D .

Here's some affiliate links to the video gear I use from Ready Made R/C:
1.3GHz video transmitters (I use 200, 400, 800, and 1500mW on various planes)
I recommend this receiver to go with them. I use an older Racewood type they used to sell, but these are supposed to be at least as good with the same Comtech tuners in them. Apparently Racewood is no longer in business, so here's what replaced them:
I use this 8dbi Patch Antenna, it has been my go-to antenna for a long time now, for years! lol I've been out more then 10 miles using one of these and the 800mW vtx listed above:
On the transmitter side, the stock dipoles that come with them work pretty good together with that patch, but if you want slightly better performance and less weight/drag, consider these:
